Grab Philippines is now seeking a Php 20 increase in its base fare due to rising fuel prices and the need to bring in more drivers to their GrabCar service. Roda pointed out that over two-thirds of its 65,000 drivers had quit in the past years and that 10 to 20% of the earnings of Grab drivers were cut due to rising fuel prices.
